"It is almost perfect for Microsoft products. It is not a very powerful tool, but it is okay for small sites and small businesses with Microsoft products. It is easy to use for backup and restore. It is good for backing up Microsoft servers such as Exchange and SharePoint servers."
"The initial setup is quite straightforward."
"The user interface is very good. The reporting and monitoring features are also good."
"The most valuable feature is the recovery."
"The solution backs up Microsoft workloads as well as anything on the market."
"Microsoft DPM is scalable."
"The automated procedure is quite good for us, as it is able to capture all of the information that we require."
"The most valuable feature is that DPM has an index so individual files can be searched."
"It integrates easily with third-party solutions compared to other vendors."
"Integration with VMware is excellent with very granular recovery."
"The backups we have been receiving from Veeam Backup Replication on-premise have been good."
"The replication is the most valuable feature for us."
"I'm satisfied with tech support, because the solution is so stable that I haven't had the need to engage any of the engineers yet."
"The solution does a good job with VM backups."
"The most valuable features I have found to be Instant Recovery, quick restore and rollback, and asynchronous copy. It is a complete solution for our needs."
"Get only one interface to manage all backup sites, secure them with replication, and manage outside LTO media."
"Management reporting could be improved."
"Additional Hyper-V knowledge would be great."
"Microsoft DPM could improve if it was available in a public or private cloud."
"The user friendliness could be improved."
"It needs portability for other vendors. It is good for backing up Microsoft servers, but it doesn't support third-party solutions such as Oracle Database. It depends on Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy, especially for Hyper-V, which has a lot of problems. They should enhance the Volume Shadow Copy functionality. Its reporting should also be better. Reporting is too weak in DPM."
"To evaluate the solution's abilities and its performance under demanding conditions, it is recommended to carry out a stress test."

"There is a very poor online user community in terms of people blogging about their experiences with DPM."
"All our customers would like a cheaper license and more flexible deployment."
"The parallel backup process from the Veeam server to Veeam has some limitations. The number of parallel backups should be increased and the compressional is very low. Sometimes it is half or one-third, but other backup solutions' compression levels are very high."
"In Linux, I suggest you backup for a PostgreSQL database."
"Veeam Backup & Replication could improve by making it more user-friendly."
"The ease of use could be improved, but I don't have a very deep amount of experience in Veeam, so it's difficult to say what could be improved."
"The one downside to Veeam is that they don't have a cloud product of their own."
"Could offer a better conclusion of the backups."
"I would like a solution for SAP systems to be included."
